Whale Safaris.
$1,780 - 2.5 hours
Private whale watching on a high-powered sports cruiser is the ultimate wildlife adventure! We’ll get you to the action faster on our 500hp twin-engine offshore vessel, so you spend more time with these gentle giants as they frolic in tranquil waters off the coast of Sydney.
From late May to early December up to 30,000 Humpback and Southern Right whales pass just a few kilometres off Sydney Harbour, as they head from the Antarctic to their breeding grounds near the equator, in one of the biggest and longest whale migrations in the world.
Your adventure begins as we make our way speedily towards the entrance to the harbour and then out past Sydney's famous beaches and rugged cliffs to the whale watching area in deep blue Pacific Ocean waters, just a few kilometres off the Sydney coast.
We’ll get you there in 15 - 20 minutes where our experienced captain will instruct you on how to spot the whales, just like the early whaling boats did for hundreds of years. Be the first on board to shout “thar she blows” and feel the excitement when we spot our first pod. Your captain will then manoeuvre the vessel into the best whale watching position, providing expert commentary, so you feel as close to these magnificent creatures as possible.
You may also get the chance to spot bottle-nosed dolphins or local fur seals off South Head, but the real stars of this show are always the magnificent whales.
